Cooking it in the slow cooker allows all of the fresh veggies to blend together and bring out the flavor. The veggies soften and create the best salsa EVER! I love the this recipe makes a lot of salsa and you are able to can it, or give it to your neighbors.

This salsa is incredible and you are going to agree that it is the best that you have ever made! I like a mild salsa so I suggest adding in an extra jalapeño or leaving in the seeds for more of a kick. This is so easy to make and only about 1o minutes of chopping are involved to create the best restaurant style salsa right in your slow cooker!

Ingredients

7 cups red tomatoes, chopped

2 large onions, (I used 1 red and 1 white onion)

1 red bell pepper, chopped

1 green bell pepper, chopped

4 jalapeno peppers, chopped (leave seeds in for more heat)

¼ cup apple cider vinegar

1 teaspoon ground coriander

1 tablespoons fresh, chopped cilantro

3 tablespoons fresh chopped basil

1 tablespoon fresh chopped sage

1-2 teaspoons salt (to taste)

Instructions

In a slow cooker add tomatoes, onions, peppers, apple cider vinegar, and coriander. Cook on low for 4-5 hours or high for 3-4. Right before it is done add in the cilantro, basil, and sage. Let it cool for a bit.

Spoon the salsa in to a blender or food processor. Pulse until it is the desired thickness. Add in salt to taste. This salsa is easy to freeze or you can can it for future use.

Yes it is the same process. Fill hot salsa into hot jars, leaving ½ inch of headspace. Remove air bubbles and adjust headspace, if needed. Wipe rims of jars with a dampened, clean paper towel. Adjust lids. Process pint jars in a boiling water bath for 15 minutes.

I can tomatoes and salsa every year a d never use the water bath. Boil your jars, fill hot jars with hot salsa & seal. There’s enough acid in tomatoes to be safe. Listen for the pop of the lids sealing.

The recipe and instructions were great, but the sage just didn’t taste quite right to us. We will be making it with more cilantro and skipping the sage next time. As someone else mentioned we did see quite a bit of water as it cooked so I just drained that off and we didn’t even need to process the salsa because we like it a little chunky and the tomatoes cooked down quite a bit. Thanks!!!!

Wondering if you use all the liquid that is created in the slow cooker when you put into the blender? I’ve just done the slow cooking part and am curious about all the liquid and if this is going to be runny? If it is runny, is there something I could add to thicken it up a bit?
